Chinese flag


The Five- Starred Red Flag is the national flag of the People's Republic of China. I think it has a very simple meaning. That's means all the Chinese can be together and fight for the same goal. Actually, it's not true. The Chinese Flag has a lot of meanings. The Chinese flag design is composed of a solid red background with five gold stars positioned in the upper left hand corner. The red background means revolution. The yellow stars mean that we are yellow people. The largest star means the Chinese Communist Party. The other stars mean four categories of the people in the state. The four categories are workers, farmers, intellectual, and business. The five stars signify the unity of the people of China under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party. The flag was officially unveiled in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square on October 1, 1949, the formal announcement of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. That's all I know about Chinese flag. I think the Five-starred Red Flag is a very good flag. The flag is simple, only five stars on the red background. But there are many meanings in the flag.
